5 Kit Homes that MAKE MORE MONEY than a 'Regular' House

Kit homes, which includes modular and prefab homes, have evolved from "low quality" to some of the highest standards of construction. Other than the added benefit of being built in a controlled environment and drastically reducing onsite construction time, kit homes have also become extremely customizable with very attractive designs.

Kit homes now can be a better bang-for-the-buck when compared to a traditional stick-built home. These are my top 5 favorites that I'm personally looking at using in my next project.

Thanks @MikeWillTravel for some of the broll!

$600/sf is crazy! But thanks for doing the leg work and showing the full cost.

I’m about to buy property. Several acres. No one in my family has owned property since the 1800’s. I’m 1.5 years shy of 60. Property ownership has been my dream since leaving the projects (a depressing looking place where poor tenants are herded. My brother lives in Vancouver BC, another dream is to one day visit him). I was told by my realtor that I can have chickens, bee hives, and…drum roll…a prefab home. Sadly no yurt permitted.

This is all new, it’s like a big reserve or very wooded area. I still need to add a driveway, and a slab for the “house.”

I been watching videos for hours and after watching your whole video, I AM HYPED!! I can’t wait to start. I’m taking pictures of everything. I don’t need a big place. I can’t wait now and I’m taking pictures during the whole process. I only wish I could find a place that used recycled materials.

600 bucks a square ft building cost is not a cheap option. It might be faster but where I live in NY one could stick build a palace for half that cost easily. Your cash on cash calculation needs to include RE taxes.

Straight from the website! Public knowledge!!!

Yes, I agree with others; this is not affordable, 600/ square foot? Ridiculous! I much preferred your content that was realistic pricing what happened?

[touristtea]

Smart video layout. Love the hard facts sandwiched in between fun home tours. Genius way to keep us enjoying the full video!

[tommybarnhart]

@kai … You’re way off on the Everywhere Tiny!!! It starts at $300k … Hell, I could hire the general contractor and build it myself with some friends for less than that. (Love your content! But this example is not quite sincere.)

[tuanvu]

Thank you for sharing your ideas & keep good videos coming!

[kgbnb]

Love the synopsis, Kai! I’ve seen success with my prefabricated tiny house that sits on a mobile trailer. These things are fairly affordable, quick turnaround and doesn’t require building permits since they aren’t permanently affixed to the land. Considering exploring your options too!

That A-frame in the forest with the black metal roof, would be an absolute nightmare in the winter. Just look at where the snow is going to pile up, and how the lot is graded. Yikes!

[Michael-qzld]

Thanks for giving us a good list, but for my family's property in a rural area this is not affordable. A cost of $258, 000.00 per unit for a tiny home on land we already own🤨

Couldn't agree more! The evolution of kit homes, especially modular and prefab options, has been truly remarkable. From "low quality" to now setting the bar for construction standards, it's impressive how far we've come.
our company VMS Houses, we're all about pushing the boundaries of innovation in construction. It's exciting to see kit homes offering better value compared to traditional stick-built homes.

Let's keep shaping the future of homebuilding together!
